A quick definition of municipal law:

Municipal law refers to the rules and regulations that apply within a city or town. These laws are created by local government officials and are meant to govern the behavior of people and businesses within the community. Municipal law is different from international law, which deals with relationships between countries. In ancient Rome, a municipium was a self-governing town that had certain privileges and was also considered part of the Roman Empire.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Municipal law refers to the laws and regulations that apply within a city, town, or other local government. It is the internal law of a nation, as opposed to international law.

For example, a municipal ordinance is a law passed by a local government, such as a city council, that applies only within that city's limits. Municipal officers are elected officials who work for the local government, such as mayors or city council members. Municipal liens are legal claims against a property for unpaid taxes or other debts owed to the local government.

These examples illustrate how municipal law is specific to a particular locality and is enforced by the local government. It is important for citizens to be aware of municipal laws and regulations in order to avoid legal issues and penalties.
